This is a letter I will be reading to my son when he is born. It will be read to him going top to bottom then from the bottom to the top. Comments & suggestions are welcome especially in the comments below. This will be read before November 15ths poem to him.

My Dear son,
Right now as I read this letter to you,
everything in your life makes perfect wonderful sense.
Life is such a wonderful gift
Will you understand this?
Now you don’t have to worry about or wonder about this gift,
None of these things ultimately matter,
what on Earth you are here for
how will your pay all your bills
what your going to do for dinner
where you are going to go
what you are going to do

Wonderfully, graceously, God has given you the gift of life
Your wonderful mommy loves you as much as I do,

I can’t promise you things will always be clear
there will be times the light won’t shine quite as bright,
life won’t make much sense sometimes.

This is a promise about our Father and God
His love is unconditionally yours,
God sent his Son to bring you to Him,
and He has sent his Spirit to guide you to Him.

I pray your roots in God will always be strong,
I will always be rooting for you,
You are my precious son,
My Asher, my happy little man,
My Benjamin, my son of God’s encouragement.
My Adair, my little oak in the grove,
I love you and always will,
with a never ending, never giving up commitment,

in a forever and ever way I love you.
